«Neil Diamond a Legend»
this DVD concert captures all his best works at the time this was recorded
(some 20 years ago) but if your a fan like me, his voice and his songs are timeless.....a thumbs-up review

«Good Concert DVD»
This is a good Concert. It may not be current video, but it is fun to watch. As a real Neil Diamond fan, it rates a place in my library to re watch again and again.

«Bit of A Disappointment»
Unfortunately there is not a lot of Neil Diamond available on video. Greatest Hits Live is rather hit and miss. Filmed before a small audience at the Aquarius Theatre in Los Angeles in 1988 it appears that Diamond was just going through the motions.
The performance, while it does include some of his best work, seems oddly disconnected and lifeless. The mix is adequate but nothing special. There are times when the camera cuts to a member of the band and you can't really hear the instrument he is playing.
I have seen Mr. Diamond twice before and I know that there are better performances out there. The song selection could have been boosted to add some more of the classics.
All in all you need to take what you can get but this DVD is disappointing.
